The stark contrast of the bright sunlight and the white marble of the Tomb of the Unknown Solider played havoc with the camera when taking photos to the Tomb Guard and associated changing ceremony. I've been able to edit some of the photos to give it a more natural, rather than washed out, look.
Still, all in all a nice day. I hold much respect for these guards; they do this 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 52 weeks a year with no let up since 1937.
